1110 PRODUCT INNOVATION PRODUCT INNOVATION

Glass Re.Group is developing new markets for recovered glass. This will improve local social and environmental benefits.

Re.Group has offtake agreements across all product lines including:

Use as a pool filtration and sand blasting medium

Use in the asphalt layer in road making

Use as a sand replacement in civil applications

Import of glass bottles, coupled with high recycling rates, means the supply of recovered glass exceeds demand for new glass making in Australia

Re.Group is the Australian agent for Krysteline, a UK-based specialist that has developed glass implosion technology

Re.Group has installed Glass Sand Plants in a number of Australian MRFs, including the Mackay and Hume MRFs

Re.Group is working to develop sustainable markets for recycled glass, addressing a key issue for the Australian recycling industry.

RecyclatesWe have a track record of maximising product quality and achieving premium market offtakes.

Re.Group has a demonstrated ability to identify and implement facility upgrades that can improve the quality of recovered materials, and achieve premium offtakes

Introduction of the Alchemy Optical Sorting system is a prime example, whereby we adapted proven technology from the fruit sorting industry for use in Australian recycling facilities

Our management focus, and our ability to innovative by deploying new technology, means we can sort material more efficiently

We have also led development of a new circuit to clean up metals recovered from mixed waste, in order to improve offtake opportunities

Our experience trading commodities from Australian waste streams, and strong relationships with key offtake partners, enables us to add value to recycling operations

Re.Group adds value through innovation, with a culture of continuous improvement and a strong focus on maximising the quality of products that are recovered at our recycling facilities.

12 13PRODUCT INNOVATION PRODUCT INNOVATION

Compost

Re.Group has experience manufacturing organic products from source separated and mixed waste sources, in accordance with regulatory guidelines and market standards

Our team has lead the development of NSW markets for MSW-derived compost, with a focus on meeting the highest standards for agricultural uses

We are helping return degraded land to productivity, in particular through rehabilitation of mine sites

Organics in the waste stream can be recovered and used to improve local soil productivity, rather than being disposed to landfill where they create significant greenhouse gas and odour emissions.

Increasing organic matter is a key opportunity to improve the productivity of Australian soils.

Re.Group is seeking to provide the market fit-for-purpose composted products, including retail of high quality source-separated organics to councils and local communities

We work with leading compost distributors to understand customer requirements and achieve localised solutions

Our team has developed a new use for recovered organics, used in over 80 million bricks to date.

Low Carbon Brick

Our team is working with Brickworks to minimise the environmental impact of making building products, utilising renewable resources to replace clay.

RE.DUCE

Use of fossil fuel (natural gas) by drawing embodied energy from ARM

Consumption of non-renewable resources (clay)

Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Extensive research and development into using organics from MSW as an Alternative Raw Material (ARM) to replace clay in brick making

Compliant with the Building Code of Australia and NSW Environmental Protection Authority regulations

Produced over 80M bricks using up to 10% ARM

In full scale commercial production RE.SULTS

Lighter bricks

Improved thermal properties

Carbon neutral brick

Cost advantages

Refuse Derived Fuel

Re.Group is completing detailed feasibility on an innovative hybrid fuel project, and expects to secure funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA)

The project involves developing a new RDF boiler to provide steam into the re-heat circuit of an existing coal fired power station, reducing the carbon intensity of electricity provided to the national electricity market

Working in partnership with a leading energy retailer with over 2.5 million customer accounts and over 4.5GW of installed or contracted energy capacity

Local RDF offtake markets provide an opportunity to recover energy resources from parts of the waste stream that cannot currently be recycled in Australia

Our team has experience in production of RDF from Australian household waste, with a strong understanding of the fuel characteristics and best-practice combustion solutions

Re.Group is developing Australian markets for alternative fuels, such as RDF, which can reduce reliance on fossil fuels and also provide resource recovery opportunities for new materials.

We are working with leading energy retailers and energy users to provide new sources of fuel.

Carbon Credits

Our team includes the lead author for a joint industry methodology for the Carbon Farming Initiative, one of the first methodologies approved which was not sponsored by the Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency

Re.Group worked extensively on negotiating a transition package for the recycling industry during the change from the Carbon Farming Initiative to the Emissions Reduction Fund. Our work allowed AWTs to continue to benefit under the Emissions Reduction Fund, and preserves the right for new AWT facilities to financially benefit from the greenhouse gas reductions they achieve

Re.Group has lead the industry in securing carbon credits for diversion of waste from landfill, allowing the greenhouse benefits of these activities to be rewarded in national carbon credit schemes.

Re.Group sits on the Technical Working Group (Waste) for the Emissions Reduction Fund, the only industry representative exclusively devoted to waste diversion projects

Re.Group is a member of the Carbon Market Institute, and represents waste diversion projects on the CMI’s Carbon Project Developers Council committee

We have the skills and experience required to maximise our projects’ revenue from carbon credits.
